Meme Generator API
Media5 Ways to Use the Apimeme Public API with JavaScript
The Apimeme Public API is an amazing resource for developers who want to add memes to their applications. Here are 5 ways you can use the Apimeme Public API with JavaScript:
1. Display Random Memes
fetch("http://apimeme.com/meme?meme=Advice-Dog")
.then(response => response.json())
.then(json => {
const image = document.createElement("img");
image.src = json.data.url;
document.body.appendChild(image);
});
This code is a basic JavaScript fetch method that fetches a random image with the meme type of "Advice-Dog", converts the response to JSON, and displays the resulting image on the HTML page.
2. Choose a Specific Meme Template
fetch("http://apimeme.com/meme?meme=Grumpy-Cat&top=Top%20Text&bottom=Bottom%20Text")
.then(response => response.json())
.then(json => {
const image = document.createElement("img");
image.src = json.data.url;
document.body.appendChild(image);
});
This code displays a Grumpy Cat meme with custom text on top and bottom of the image.
3. Use a Pre-existing Meme
fetch("http://apimeme.com/meme?url=http://i.imgur.com/1dSbJ.gif&top=Top%20Text&bottom=Bottom%20Text")
.then(response => response.json())
.then(json => {
const image = document.createElement("img");
image.src = json.data.url;
document.body.appendChild(image);
});
If there's a pre-existing meme you'd like to use, it can be added to your site using the apimeme URL.
4. Generate a Meme with Custom Text
fetch("http://apimeme.com/meme?meme=Condescending-Wonka&top=Top%20Text&bottom=Bottom%20Text")
.then(response => response.json())
.then(json => {
const image = document.createElement("img");
image.src = json.data.url;
document.body.appendChild(image);
});
Using this code, you can customize the top and bottom text of the Condescending Wonka template.
5. Mix and Match Meme Templates
fetch("http://apimeme.com/meme?meme=Condescending-Wonka|Y-U-No|Futurama-Fry|Chemistry-Cat&top=Top%20Text&bottom=Bottom%20Text")
.then(response => response.json())
.then(json => {
const image = document.createElement("img");
image.src = json.data.url;
document.body.appendChild(image);
});
This is a fun way to mix and match between multiple meme templates. In this example, the Condescending Wonka, Y-U-No, Futurama-Fry, and Chemistry-Cat templates are chosen and customized with text.
In conclusion, the Apimeme Public API is a fantastic resource for developers who want to integrate memes into their sites and applications. With these five code examples, you can get started using Apimeme in your JavaScript project today.
